Chapter 1
Cassara, please give me Hermione. We are under attack and if something were to happen to her-" Nick said nervously.
"No! I will defend and protect her to my death and I swear-" Cassara answered strongly
"That death will come soon if we do not hide her" Nick walked over to the young woman (who recently turned 20) and took her hand in his. He stroked her hand with his thumb. "I promise that no harm shall come to her and we will get her when it is safe" he kissed her hand "I promise"
Cassara gazed into her husband's deep green eyes and a tear rolled down her cheek. "If we must," she said, her voice cracking from sadness.
Nick looked into the cradle at the three-week-old baby. She looked so peaceful as she slept. It pained him to have to do this. Nick picked the baby up in a bundle of blankets and took out a piece of parchment. He wrote on the parchment and kissed the baby on the forehead when he finished. "You had better remove her necklace, so that no one knows who she is" He moved his hand towards his daughter's neck, but Cassara stopped him
"No, leave it there. For this is the link that is going to keep us together. To make sure I will always be able to find her" by now Cassara's face was tearstained and red. Her eyes were becoming puffy. The two then heard footsteps and voices coming closer. "Hurry" Cassara whispered. Nick nodded and before her eyes disappeared. The door was then kicked down and about twenty death eaters entered the room.
A death eater stepped forward, cupped her chin in his hand, and said "Princess, we have a proposition"
